[pywikibot] Re: Checkuser

[info]

Hi,

neither checkuser nor checkuserlog of checkuser extension is well documented and there are no generators implemented yet. You have to setup your own generator e.g. useing api.ListGenerator [2] e.g.

  gen = api.ListGenerator(listaction='checkuserlog', total=25, site=pywikibot.Site(), culuser='WikiSysop', cultarget=None, culfrom=None)
  
cul parameters with None can be omitted. Another way it to use APISite._generator but note that this is a hidden method and may be dropped:

  site = pywikibot.Site()
  gen = site._generator(api.ListGenerator, type_arg='checkuserlog', total=25, culuser='WikiSysop', cultarget=None, culfrom=None)

Maybe this APISite method should become a public method.

To implement direct APISite methods like APISite.checkuserlog() file a phab task for it.

It's based on mwclient instead of pywikibot, but I do have some code that uses the checkuserlog API.

 

Thank you! I don't know mwclient and hate dealing with login, but I will have a look.
